Im looking for a PhD Position in the area of molecular simulations

Submitted by Mario Cyril Pinto on

   My name is Mario Pinto. I have a bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering (2006) and a masters degree in Computational Science (2008). Since August 2008, I have been working at Computational Research Labs, Pune, India in the Computational Materials Group. My work mostly involves the use of MD, and I use LAMMPS for all simulations.



    I am looking for a PhD position in the area of molecular simulations, applied to studystructure / properties /

Modeling Fracture and Failure with Abaqus lecture notes

Submitted by badrinath on

Hi All,

I am working on modelling the fracture failures using ABAQUS. I am searching for support where I can start on my own by following some notes.

 

If anyone has the notes related to this course conducted by Simulia please help me in getting that for me.

hi i am ganesh

currently we are doing final year project about process modelling of turning operation in ansys lsdyna.we are facing difficulty in finding out the constants required for the johnson cook material model.chip formation and failure criteria is still a major problem.so i kindly request you to give suggestion and materials to solve this problem.

modelling of reinforced concrete structural elements in ANSYS

Submitted by smithapp on

i want to model reinforced concrete beam and column in ansys software.i choose the same solid 70 both for steel and concrete. changed only the material properties. is it ok?

how can i model the stirrups?

if i am using the link33 for steel,how can i do it?

i am going to find the fire resistance of reinforced concrete beams and columns by including the factors required under performance based design and validating the results with real fire test values.

how we include the multilinear properties of concrete in the modelling?

need help on fatigue

Submitted by johnsmart1987 on

hi friends am doin my my project on" FEA of plasticity induced crack closure". my specimen size is 80*80 mm. by using symmetry condition i modelled 1/4th of model in ANSYS. therfore i created 40*40 mm plate. with initial crack length of 4mm.means its MT specimen of 80*80mm with 8 mm crack length, by symmetry condition i modelled 40*40 with 4mm crack lenth.
